Iuron IU-QSFP-4SFP+-AOC15M 40G QSFP+ to 4x SFP+ AOC 15m

The Iuron IU-QSFP-4SFP+-AOC15M is an MSA-compliant 40GBase Active Optical Cable (AOC) that breaks out a single QSFP+ port into four independent 10G SFP+ connections over multi-mode fiber at a reach of 15 meters (49.2 feet). Operating at an 850nm wavelength, the cable adheres to SFF-8436, SFF-8431, and relevant SFP+ and QSFP MSA standards, ensuring broad interoperability across a wide range of network equipment. TAA compliance makes it suitable for government and federally funded procurement. Every unit is 100% TDR and VNA tested and individually verified on switches prior to shipment, making this cable a dependable choice for high-density data center deployments, NAS, SAN, and HPC environments where structured, high-throughput interconnects are essential.

Key features & benefits

• 40G to 4x10G Breakout Architecture — Delivers a full 40-Gigabit aggregate connection from a single QSFP+ port, fanning out to four discrete 10G SFP+ lanes—enabling efficient port utilization and flexible topology design in high-density switching environments.
• Active Optical Cable Technology — As an AOC, the cable integrates active optical transceivers at each end, providing lower power consumption and greater signal integrity over the 15-meter span compared to passive copper alternatives—well suited for intra-rack and adjacent-rack connections.
• 850nm Multi-Mode Fiber Operation — Optimized for transmission over multi-mode fiber at 850nm, aligning with standard OM3/OM4 plant infrastructure commonly deployed in modern data centers.
• MSA Compliance: SFF-8436 and SFF-8431 — Full adherence to SFF-8436 (QSFP+) and SFF-8431 (SFP+) Multi-Source Agreement standards guarantees interoperability with compliant network devices without requiring vendor-specific programming or workarounds.
• TAA Compliant — Meets Trade Agreements Act requirements, qualifying this cable for government agency and federally funded enterprise procurement programs.
• Hot-Swappable Plug-and-Play Design — Supports hot-swap installation for zero-downtime deployment or replacement, simplifying maintenance in live production network environments.
• Rigorous Pre-Shipment Validation — Each cable undergoes 100% TDR and VNA testing and is individually verified on live switches before delivery, providing a high level of confidence in out-of-box performance.
